Don't sit down to your evening meal before a complete toilet if you have company. Don't cleanse your nails, your nose or your ears in public. Don't use hair dye, hair oil or pomades. Don't wear evening dress in daytime. Don't wear jewelry of a gaudy character; genuine jewelry modestly worn is not out of place. Don't overdress yourself or walk affectedly. Don't wear slippers or dressing-gown or smoking-jacket out of your own house. Don't sink your hands in your trousers' pockets. Don't whistle in public places, nor inside of houses either. Don't use your fingers or fists to beat a tattoo upon floor, desk or window panes. Don't examine other people's papers or letters scattered on their desk. {59} Don't bring a smell of spirits or tobacco into the presence of ladies. Never use either in the presence of ladies. Don't drink spirits; millions have tried it to their sorrow. * * * * * ETIQUETTE ON THE STREET. 1. Your conduct on the street should always be modest and dignified. Ladies should carefully avoid all loud and boisterous conversation or laughter and all undue liveliness in public. 2. When walking on the street do not permit yourself to be absent-minded, as to fail to recognize a friend; do not go along reading a book or newspaper. 3. In walking with a lady on the street give her the inner side of the walk, unless the outside is the safer part; in which case she is entitled to it.
